You're at the back of the queue! Lol.

No chance I've got 2 and a half sets but you'll struggle I got mine from subaru a few wks ago

It'll take time but as it's the only thing missing I'll give it a shot...

Did you get a keyring with your new one? Just found a set they are 100 quid but look well worn.

Yep - got the ring.

I thought they were discontinued.

There was a set on ebay last week £125 bit pricey

I've been keeping an eye out on evil bay, didn't see them, were they genuine, if so, and in good condition, then that's not expensive.

I didn't take that much notice sorry busy searching for wr1's

There's a good few on ebay and in Autotrader. None of these WR's take your fancy?

I liked one on auto trader £11.500 50k miles looked tidy #260 checked it out, omg one vid he's doing donuts the next he's goin through 8k revs clocking 160mph

All offtopic but forget #31 (one owner rust bucket) and #240 (non-enthusiast unloved multi-layer painted toy)

im in no rush it might take me 6 months but I'll be searching all the sites a couple of times a day till I find the right one. Max three owners 30-60k miles original paint and owned by an enthusiast

#240 nearly put me off a wr1

Don't be hung up on previous owners, it's nice to think that a low owner car with original paint has been cared for, but in Reality it's not always the case.
Mine for example has 3 previous owners, and has been painted, but I know all the previous owners, and at least one was in the armed forces, so the car spent a lot of its life stored in an aircraft hanger under a cover whilst he was away on duty.
The paint was me, when I bought it I wasn't happy that there was a couple of marks on the front bumper, so I had this fixed, no big deal, just a personal thing.
So I have a car that's done just shy of 28Kmiles with 3 previous owners and had the front bumper painted, full service history, new clutch, timing belt etc etc that lives in a dehumidified garage.
Would that really put you off!

I can handle paint cos it's an 11 yr old car but it's got to be a really good job

I don't want a car with bumper wings and bonnet painted alarm bells start ringing

There will be very few out there that haven't been painted at somepoint in there life, think ur kinda jumping the gun, I bought mine that was all original paint and thought the exact same about whether on not to paint it, but all the panels on these have a Id sticker, the bonnet is alloy so if the been in a bump then the bonnet would generally be wrecked! So jst check all door stickers, bonnet stickers and boot stickers that's a good indication if it's been in a bump. Ps and glass if ur that paranoid!

Must have been warming his tyres up in the other vid
